Frogs vs. Fish - Trout Stocking Debate Friday at Sportsman's Expo

January 8, 2008 -- Plan to attend a panel provocatively (and somewhat misleadingly) titled “Frogs vs. Fish” at 5 pm this Friday at this year’s sportsmen’s expo in San Mateo and support sound management of California’s native fisheries and species. 
 
The panel will feature Center for Biological Diversity biologist Noah Greenwald, who will defend the Center 's recent victory in a suit against the Department of Fish and Game that resulted in a temporary cessation of hatchery trout stocking in some California waters, Tom Stienstra, outdoor columnist for the San Francisco Chronicle who organized the panel, a representative from the Department of Fish and Game, and writer Dan Bacher of Fish Sniffer. 
 
Because limiting stocking to protect native fish and amphibians has generated a fair degree of controversy, and there has been a lot of misinformation circulated about the restrictions on stocking of trout in California waters, Noah would appreciate your support in the audience.
